Razer Cynosa Lite - Essential Gaming Keyboard (Fully Programmable, RGB Chroma Lighting, Gaming Grade Keys, 10 Key Roll-Over, Spill Resistant) UK Layout | Black

Product Information

The Razer Cynosa Lite, Razer Cynosa Chroma, Razer Cynosa Chroma Pro and Razer Cynosa V2 all support Razer Synapse 3.

The Cynosa Lite will sit comfortably with any standard peripherals you already have, and won’t look out of place on any desk. Paint your play in a truly immersive light with the Razer Cynosa V2—the essential RGB gaming keyboard. The Razer Cynosa Lite Gaming Keyboard, Razer Cynosa Chroma Gaming Keyboard, Razer Cynosa Chroma Pro Gaming Keyboard and Razer Cynosa V2 Gaming Keyboard each include a 2-year warranty. The Razer Cynosa Chroma and Razer Cynosa Chroma Pro support 10 key rollover and anti-ghosting, a feature that will block additional simultaneously key presses from being registered after the 10-key limit has been reached.All four products feature 1000 Hz Ultrapolling, which means that they will send data to your PC 1,000 times per second. Elsewhere, it has no wrist-rest, no media or macro keys, no USB pass-through and a 10-key rollover designation that won’t cope with high-end, fast-paced gaming.

My main setup features a Huntsman mini which feels more sturdy and keys rock less giving a more enjoyable typing experience. I then let go of every key, worried something might be going horribly wrong, only to press "F" and have it work without issue. The Razer Cynosa Chroma and Razer Cynosa Chroma Pro are tied for second best while the Razer Cynosa Lite comes in last at roll overs. Even if you enable keys from the Synapse tool, you still have to manually adjust the brightness on your keyboard. The height, top to bottom, feels a little narrow compared to previous keyboards I've used, but is adequate.

With Synapse you are forced to also load/run other razer apps in the background that work with Synapse(otherwise Synapse wont load, and your forced to use the default color scheme for razer products).

Rollover is a feature where your computer will register multiple keys that were press simultaneously. The Cynosa Lite does have RGB LEDs in its keys, but they’re underwhelming: the lighting is not bright or consistent, and the sole lighting zone means you don’t get many customisation options. There’s also ten-key rollover along with anti-ghosting, which is useful for preventing lost inputs during the heat of a firefight, or missed characters on that crucial piece of homework on Microsoft Word. The Cynosa Lite doesn’t feature any additional macro keys, which is disappointing for those looking to play MMO or MOBA games with myriads of button combinations.The backlighting operates through Razer’s renowned Chroma lighting engine, which is well known for bringing out the best in any Razer product.
